What gauges are people running?

Postby Whacky_ricer » Thu Jan 12, 2017 11:42 am

Hi all,

So ive decided i want a boost gauge and have ordered the Defi CR Advance 52 mm boost gauge. Seems to match the oem instruments on the GT pretty well (red rings and spinup needles on startup). Have also ordered a gauge pod for the centre dash cubby that holds 2 x 52 mm gauges from cubbypods.com.

My question is to others that have a similar setup, what gauge are you running other than boost? I was thinking oil pressure, but how difficult would that be to install? Any other suggestions?

I only have an Air/Fuel Ratio gauge, but I can highly recommend the Innovative MTX-L one. It's digital, and apparently faster response time than some others.
I don't have it mounted though (just hidden away in the glove box, for a stealth install).

Ended up ditching the Defi Gauge idea, gauges are 280 each and need a controller which is another 200 (seemed overkilll for 2 gauges). Ended up ordering a cubbypod and Prosport performance series electronic boost and oil pressure gauges. Lets see how this goes....

Also, the Defi Cr gauges have a 1/2 inch bezel which aparently means the cubby door wont close, and the stealth install was what im after. Its a shame, because they look the best match to oem instruments. Same problem with Prosport Halo gauges too which also match well.
